Hmmm, well the bigger rad should sort it though, he must have spent a furtune in the last week
yeah i have spent a bloody fortune, nearly 500 quid in the past week!! only prob im having now is the hoses to the rad. i have use the samco bottom water hose but it has to be twisted slightly to fit and the top water hose is a nightmare. the boost pipe from the intercooler sits right next to it and there si no room for the water hose. so i have used a bit of normal hose but its really bloody tight!!
All i need to do now is finish doing the universal joint (started yesterday and it bloody rained!) and then go out and drive it.
i had the car ticking over for quite a while and its not getting even sligtly hot so seems to have sorted the problem.
will see how the car behaves on the journey to sixfield later for the mini meet!!
wish me luck!! oh and thanks to anyone that lended a helping hand especially h196jne!! (sorry bud aint got a clue what your name is!)
